Joshua Palmer Doubtful to Return With Hamstring Injury

Sunday, November 1, 9:23 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (hamstring) is doubtful to return to Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, according to the team's official announcement. The 27-year-old pulled up while running a deep route in the first quarter and was assisted off the field before heading to the locker room. Palmer was targeted once but did not record a reception before exiting. Buffalo has D.J. Moore back in the lineup after a two-game absence, while Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman remain available. Palmer entered Sunday with just four receptions for 117 yards across five games.

Malik Benson Earning Reps With First-Team Offense

Sunday, August 16, 10:11 AM

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Malik Benson has earned reps with the first-team offense in training camp, according to head coach Klint Kubiak, per Levi Edwards of the team's official website. "He's earned those reps, but he's got to stay humble and stay hungry," Kubiak said. Benson has looked like the front-runner for the team's WR3 role this summer behind Tre Tucker and Jalen Nailor, although Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr. could still have something to say about that before the Week 1 regular-season opener rolls around in early September. The 23-year-old was taken in the sixth round in April from the University of Oregon after he caught 43 passes for 719 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games with the Ducks last year. Benson caught two of his four targets for 26 yards on 20 offensive snaps in the team's preseason opener on Thursday against the Arizona Cardinals, also returning a kickoff for 21 yards. For now, Benson is a name to monitor in single-year redraft leagues.
